there was nothing but praise for defense tonight. >> i think our defense continues to get better and better. i thought our coaches did a great job understanding what they're were trying to do offensive play, but our players did a great job of understanding them offensive play. we were probably one step ahead of them for the course of the game. it showed up in the results. >> as you to start for todd heap, including this beauty. he left the game at after making the catch with pain in his left shoulder and arm. today, john harbaugh says he did not suffer serious injury. he says he expects the tight and will return to practice tomorrow. he will play in this seasons second game against cincinnati. reggie bush won the heisman trophy in 2005. he ran away with the heisman
